The market has spoken. The market won't tolerate white supremacists like that pencil-necked prick, Tucker Carlson.

Good on ya, market!!

Language-instruction app Babbel said it was “deeply sorry” after one of its ads was broadcast this week during an episode of Tucker Carlson’s controversial Fox News show.

In a statement shared on Twitter Tuesday, the online language learning company acknowledged placing an ad “with Fox.” But the company said it “did not know” the ad would air during the prime time “Tucker Carlson Tonight” program, which it called “so repugnant and at odds with our mission and values.” Babbel Pulls Ad From Tucker Carlson’s Fox News Show Because It’s ‘So Repugnant’ | HuffPost

Carlson, who has a history of repeating white nationalist talking points, sparked outrage in December when he claimed on air that immigrants were making the U.S. “poorer and dirtier and more divided.” Numerous companies, including Pacific Life, IHOP, Bowflex and Ancestry.com, pulled their advertisements in response.

You are the worst kind of trash, Carlson. You're trash with money and a soapbox. I hope your words really come back to hurt you someday Carlson and that your friends and family disown you. It's you and the people who give you credibility that are doing great harm to this nation.

Tucker has certainly changed from when he was on MSNBC. Looking back, at that time, he did bad mouth his then former employer, CNN. Maybe that was more indicative of his character and ethics than I thought at the time.

Just another FOX hating thread.... So darn silly!

Fox News Channel is top basic cable network in April; CNN ratings plummet

Fox News Channel dominated basic cable for the month of April, beating news, sports, and entertainment networks in total day and primetime viewers, while rival news channel CNN continued to shed its audience.

According to Nielsen Media Research, FNC garnered 2.4 million viewers in primetime and finished first among all basic cable stations for the third month in a row, and 1.4 million viewers in total day to top basic cable for the 34th consecutive month.

For the 208th month in a row, FNC also beat left-leaning CNN and MSNBC across both categories, while CNN marked its lowest-rated month in total day viewers since October 2015, and since August 2015 in the key demographic of viewers age 25-54.

"Hannity" finished the month of April as the highest-rated cable news program in total viewers while "Tucker Carlson Tonight" ranked number two, both outpacing MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow in key categories.

Both "Tucker Carlson Tonight" (8 p.m.) and "Hannity" (9 p.m.) also beat the NBA Playoffs airing on ESPN and TNT and wrestling's "Monday Night Raw" airing on USA Network in total viewers.

Additionally, FNC’s regularly scheduled programming beat out CNN’s five-hour town hall event on April 22, bringing in 2.3 million viewers and 380,000 in the 25-54 age demo while CNN came in last in total viewers with 1.2 million and 371,00 in the demo for the night.

Yea the market spoke.... FOX NEWS smashed all the others. CNN is in a massive nose dive!


FNC averaged 2.4 million in primetime, beating CNN’s 767,000 and MSNBC’s 1,660,000 total viewers. For the 25-54 demo, FNC brought in 389,000, topping CNN’s 198,000 and MSNBC’s 255,000.

Good for them. I don't know why anyone would invest a penny advertising on his show.

Tucker used to be okay, but with his head up Trump's large posterior, he's suffering from oxygen deprivation.

Let Carlson sell ad time to gold bugs and MLM scams like AM talk radio.

Tucker is a pudgy asshole...Pushing racism and bigotry ...He needs to removed or maybe kicked in the face

He has zero character. All he has is his hate and his schoolyard smart-ass demeanor. Next to the word, "Troll" in the dictionary is his picture.

Even before trump he was a racist prick. In the OP's link there's a clip of Carson questioning Obama's racial purity - as if that's something really important to him and other racist pricks like him.

Do I even want to know what "racial purity" is?
 
Just wondering! Are there any conservatives that liberals do not hate to their core? Is everyone not a liberal a racist?
 
One of my sons has expressed an interest in learning German before he goes off for his Austrian semester. I think I'll sign up for a subscription to Babbel for him today. Thanks Babbel!

He's pretty trashy, selling his soul to peddle nonsense to hateful people like most on Fox news. The worst kind of trash are the people that watch his show and who he panders to
